[Solved] 987 Enterprise - multiple background processes

Post by w64bit »

There is an issue with 987 Enterprise.
If I click multiple times the program icon, in Task Manager I have multiple background processes of Everything.
With non-Enterprise there is no problem.

Thanks for the bug report.

I ran into this issue too.

I'm currently blocking all IPC calls including the 'send command line options' message!
When Everything is already running, running Everything again will try to send the existing process the new command line.
This command line is never received (as it is blocked) and the new process will timeout after 1 minute.

I'll allow the 'send command line options' IPC call in the enterprise version in the next update.

Everything 1.4.1.988 allows sending the command line options to an existing Everything process.
